Web UI fails to parse password with equals symbol on Migrate

[joshbautista]

Expected Behavior

When clicking Migrate on the final page, SMT should start the migration.

Actual Behavior

When clicking Migrate on the final page, SMT throws an error, displaying sensitive info in plaintext:

Can't get source and target profiles: error while preparing prerequisites for migration: could not parse source-profile, error =
invalid key=value pair (expected format: key1 =value1):
password=this=isvalid

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Create a PostgreSQL user with appropriate SMT permissions that has an equals = symbol in its password (e.g. this=isvalid)
2. Use that user during the initial Connect to Database screen
3. Go through the migration steps to the last page (doesn't matter if it's a POC or Low Downtime Migration)
4. Click Migrate
